Well, I read all of this and am still totally stymied! What was the sound after all that!?? Even though I'm no further enlightened, this had me riveted and so curious to know what made that damnable noise! Maybe he had tinnitus...
I confess to having a penchant for trees and writing poems about them. I actually liked this poem of yours more than any I've written! You've personalised the tree in your yard, you've given it life, and I would love to know if it ever wakes up and walks, but more importantly, if it actually does recognise you.
I have to say in all honesty, this poem had me riveted from the first word to the last. I reveled in the beautifully intricate imagery this displayed along with fantastic word choices, amazing phrasing...I can't say enough about how much I enjoyed this poem, even though I confess to not quite understanding what it was about, but I'll make a guess: you have overcome a fear while throughout challenging it, you suffered a lack of confidence and confusion. But you won over in the end. That's my take on this, and it was very worthwhile endeavouring to understand it!
I loved it! I also enjoy reading this form of poetry and must have a go at it myself. What I most appreciated about this piece was that it brought across what it would have felt like in the middle of a battle by incorporating the storm and the flags on the hillside. I can see why this has been awarded a quill award, and look forward to reading more of your work. Cheers!
